Chief Executive

,

South Kesteven DC

Aidan is the chief executive of South Kesteven Council in Lincolnshire. Over a twenty-year career working in and around public services, he has developed a broad perspective of public sector modernisation and change having held senior positions as a local government politician, partner-level positions in public sector change consultancies, a director of two national charities and latterly as a chief officer once again in local government.

Academic interests very much mirror the focus on public service modernisation, with research topics including quantifying the performance relationship across the public sector economy and the role of organisational development in meeting the challenges of austerity.

Outside of work Aidan enjoys spending time with his family and is a keen amateur cook.
